webview remote debugging console commands with android webview

Question

So i got the remote debug system using chrome devtools to work...

The issue is I can not enter in any javascript commands to the console.

such as: alert('test');

it is like the enter button only gives new lines...

please help is there a setting I am missing?

Device update:

This happens regardless of the Android Device i am using...

I am using Chrome Version 86.0.4240.111 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

You should give us more information. What software and devices do you use? What version of android? Describe devtools launch process... — Piterden

You should be able to interact with elements or any other staff normally as you would with web application, if your setup is correct. You can see this article how to setup webview debugging.

Maybe you already did read this, butt just in case you didn't take a look at this article: developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/… I was able to debug following this guide even on linux, if not you can always switch to different linux distribution
